Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented Sept. 3, 1907.

Application filed September 13', 1906. Serial No 884,371.

To all whom it may concern: 7

Be it known that I, JoHANN FEINENBURG, a' citizen of Germany, residing in the town of Auf der Hebe, near Solingen, Germany, have invented new and useful Improvements in Scissors, of which the following is a specification.

- This invention relates to improved scissors, the

members of which are made of-cornparativelysoft metal and are provided with steel cutting, blades secured to such members in a simple and reliable manner.

, In the accompanying drawing: Figure 1 is a plan of a pair of scissors embodying my invention; Fig. 2 a plan of one of the members of said scissors, and Fig. 3 a cross section on line 3-3, Fig. 2.

Each member of the scissors or shears is composed of a comparatively soft metal body 5, terminating in the usual handle 6. Body 5 is provided with an undercut recess 7 adapted for the reception of a steel blade 8, the heel and outer edgeof which is beveled to correspond to the flare of recess 7. In this way the edge of the recess surrounds the heel of the blade as well as the outer edge thereof, while, the inner cutting edge of the blade remains exposed.

In order to secure 'the blade to the soft body 5, the latter is provided with integral flaring soft metal pins 9, received by corresponding tapering perforations 10 of blade 8. These pins increase in diameter towards their free ends, so that they will securely lock the blade 8 to the softmetal body 5. j

In assembling the parts, the soft metal body 5 is pressed, in a die, into engagement with the blade 8, so

that the soft metal from body '5 is forced into perforations 10 to form the tapering pinsd). At the same time the edge of body 5 is forced against the outer edge and around the heel of theblade 8, to form the undercut edge of recess 7 that overlaps the blade. In this way the-parts are securely connected to each other in a reliable and simple manner.

I claim:

1. Scissors provided with soft metal bodies having an undercut recess, and pins, combined with steel blades having perforations that receive the pins, and a beveled edge engaging the undercut recess, substantially as specified,

2. Scissors provided with soft metal bodies having an undercut recess, and tapering pins, combined with steel blades having flaring perforations that receive the pins, and a beveled edge engaging the undercut recess, substantially as specified.

Signed by me, at Dusseldorf, Germany this twenty fourth day of August 1906. v
